Copper Elf

I think their a lot of faffing going on in this place & no real production. They talk their way out of doing jobs but like collecting junk. They are not Blacksmiths. No sweat coming out of them only premium prices if they can pull the wool over your eyes let alone do the work.

I completed the one to one blacksmith day this weekend gone and if I could 7 stars I would. From the communication with John before hand to the day itself it was fantastic and well worth attending. John personality meant the day was relaxed but very informative from explaining all aspect of the H&S and the process and techniques that we practised to make out items.I loved the day, sweated buckets, smashed some iron into various items and would do it all again. Thank you John.

Enjoyed a great day withbrhe copper elf in his forge on the beginner's course in blacksmithing. Cannot recommend this highly enough and made some great items to take home too cant wait to go again thanks

John and Dave (Copper Elf & Iron Dwarf) are great. I can't thank them enough for the help and support they have given. They sell incredibly well priced forges that they make themselves. They work superbly. Dave also helped to set me up with a blower, anvil stand (that he built to spec for me), tools and very well priced steel/coke fuel.I took a one day course with John. I left with a great set of items that I had forged myself and a lot of valuable skills that I can use with my nice new forge set up.Can't recommend them enough. If you're thinking of starting up, need any tools, materials, hand crafted products or training get hold of them through their stores or Facebook. Super chuffed with the help I've had.Thank you!!

I bought the one to one smithing experience for my husband and he has just come home with some lovely handmade items that he made. He said it was a brilliant day. John was very laid back and coaches you through the process of a number of black smithing skills. A very enjoyable day - highly recommended

I attended a one to one blacksmithing day, John is a fantastic teacher with a very patient laid back approach. I would highly recommend this to anyone who has an interest in Blacksmithing or like me are looking to get into the craft as a hobby, this is an excellent place to start. and to top it all, you come away with the items you create on the day.

I spent an amazing day with John learning a new set of skills a according to my wife I have not shut up about it for the last few days. Best of luck with your new workshop I will be back to gain more knowledge.

I have just had a 1-1 with John learning the basics of blacksmithing. What a brilliant day I would highly recommend.

I can't begin to say just how much I loved the day. Like minded and super skilled John guided me through the basics and encouraged me all the way. What a fantastic experience and a terrific day. If you get a chance to do the course do it.
